The complexities of a human soul



This picture, to some, may be just a wacky picture taken during Christmas. Others may see this as two silly gooses having a laugh over a Macbook application. But to me, this is a delicate yet accidental portrayal of human judgmental attitudes and error. For instance, this picture shows how the distorted face is warped into a slight bean shape, and my shoulder is mutated over the bean-head. But this represents how the common bean, consumed by billions of people constantly, is similar to the face. When you take a bite of a bean, the structure of it collapses, releases its taste, something not forseen by the connoisseur. People may look at this face and laugh. Some may cry. Some may even feel sorry, and donate large amounts of money to operate on my disfigured head. But I will always see a kid, dashed in his prime by an anomaly of his head, mistaken for who he really is. He could be the coolest cat on the block. But don't be mistaken, comrades. El Gato does not enjoy beans. He actually despises them. Beans are the downfall of humanity. People say that they are the magical fruit......WRONG! Their cunning and trickery has led everyone into thinking that!

I'm sorry. That was inappropriate and irrelevant. I will save my bean rant for another day. But back to the bean in our lives. People need to stop admiring the bean from a distance, but take that disgusting, revolting bite into the bean to find out what its really like.
